Joe Biden, the 77-year-old presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, pushed back strongly in an interview aired on Wednesday at a reporter who asked him if he's taken a cognitive test. "No, I haven't taken a test," Biden told the CBS News correspondent. That's like saying you, before you got in this programme, you take a test where you're taking cocaine or not," Biden said. Trump recently divulged details of a cognitive test he underwent that he claimed proved he had the "mental stamina" to lead the country. Trump called for Biden, who is currently leading in the polls, to take a similar test, because "something's going on".
